Coming Out

I am an atheist.

For those of you who don't understand what atheism means, or have a very bad misunderstanding of what it means, let me try and explain. Atheism is ONLY a single position held in reference to a single idea. It is the lack of belief in a god or gods. Atheism is not a religion. It has no dogma or creed. Atheism has nothing to do with a position on the origins of life or the theory of evolution. Atheism says nothing of morals or ethics, nor does it say anything about the character of a person. Atheism, to me, quite simply means: "I do not believe in a god."


I am an atheist. I do not believe in a god, and I live my life like there is no god or gods. Now let me be clear; I am not saying that there is no god or gods. On this question I am a strict agnostic. However, the enormous lack of evidence and the incredibly weak evidence given for the existence of a god are what I base my position upon. To put it another way: my lack of belief in a god is the same lack of belief I have in fairies and unicorns.
